View 4 RepliesI've created a report that will print on a pre-printed paper. Is there a way to embed a word document into a report or some other type on document. I'm not able to format the text like in word.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,I've the following scenario: One Full Text Search enabled SQL Server Table with one image type field that holds document uploaded from users.The idea is to store binary document(.doc. xls, .pdf, .ppt, html, .xml and so on) and using SQL server full text search i can retrieve record that contains certaind word or words.I have no problems with them. So imagine i do a simple select * from Documents where a=b and i get one collumn with binary document field.With this scenario, i want to "extract" that text from that document + 20 words left and 20 right to show user some info and help him to search desired document (not only for its type or title). Like search engines do.But believe me, i cant find out any component, class or something to do such a thing.I think, the hard work is done with full text search engine...Sql server has that data, but it can decodeI'm so desperate. I would accept answers such "sorry, it can't be done", from a experienced user, but i need to know Thanks in advance

Today we moved from 32bit to 64bit computing environment. 64bit Window server 2003 and SQL 2005 are now our playing ground. And 32 bit Office 2003 is also installed. Excel in Office program plays important roll in our mission.
One of our routine task is that
step 1. get Excel data files from other websites and
step 2. extract specific data from them and
step 3. converting them into some type of data that can be compatible with SQL
Our problem occured in step 3. To convert data, we realised taht 64 bit excel driver, which we believe is not yet available, is required.
My questions are:
1. Is 64 bit excel driver (of office 2003 or office 2007) available now?
2. Is there any way OR IS IT POSSIBLE to use 32 bit excel driver with 64bit SQL 2005?
If possible, please enlighten me.
I would appreciate it very much if anybody answer my questions.
Sincerely
I have a rather large DB that is used ONLY for lookups. I want to develop a componet that will lookup in that database, and then I want to be able to distribute that component. My obstical is that I do not want the person who gets the component to have any access to the database... here is my question.
Is there a way to embed the database (or even an xml file) into the DLL in order to keep it from prying eyes?
Can SQLServer be used as an embedded database in a program?
If not, can anyone suggest some alternatives that can be?
Thanks!

I'm trying to embed SQL Management Studio in an installation package. Although I can find information on how to embed SQL Server Express I can't find instructions for the Management Studio express, although the web site says it's possible. Can anyone help?

I'm trying to embed SQL Management Studio in an installation package and although the SQL website says that it CAN be embedded there are no instructions on HOW to embed it. I can only find instructions on embedding SQL Express edition. If anyone can help with this I'd appreciate it!

Is there anyway to embed a report in an email message instead of attaching it? I want to be able to send out nice looking order confirmations via email using Reporting Services. I would like the HTML to be embeded in the email so that the user does not have to open an attachment to see the report.
Can this be done?
Thanks,

Hi, I have a report which includes all the customer data. each customer have a separate page based on their id.
For example, the report is 10 pages and each page is data for one customer.
Now we need to insert the instruction on the second page of each customer report. that means we need
to insert 10 instructions on the above report so each customer will get one page of data and one page of instruction.
this instruction is a pdf/word file, and
it is big so it is hard for us to redesign it in the report. We are thinking to embed the pdf/word file into the report, but
looks to me, the report only can embed the the image. If we make that pdf file as image, the report will be very
large and hard tto deploy. Can someone help me with this? thanks in advance.
Hello all!
I'm trying to see if there is a way to embed SSRS reports into a Powerpoint Presentation (or build a PP Presentation using multiple SSRS reports as the slides)? I have a requirement to have a presentation available whose content is dynamic based upon the customer our marketing folks are going to visit that particular day. The idea is they would access this presentation from IIS or a shared folder
Still new to SSRS (I'm a convert from Cognos / Hyperion), so if this is a real simple question go easy on me! ;-)
Thanks in advance!
Im trying to figure out if there is a way to embed an ssis package into a c# winform?
I know that I can pass variables to a package and write the entire package out programatically, but im curious if there is a way to add the dtsx as an assembly or something. OR is there any tool that would take the ssis package and spit out its equivalent in code?
thanks
Hi
I have seen in the licence of SNAC that it is a redistribuable piece of software. That's fine to me
However, when we install the MSI file, it places dll files into <windir>system32. Our policy, when possible, is to install everything we need into the install dir of our software (to work with validated sub-systems).
Is it possible to parametrize the installation of SNAC for the place where files are written, or to install the files ourselves as part of our distribution ?

When I place an image WITHIN a chart, it appears in the correct location in DESIGN mode, however, when I preview it, my chart renders...and then the image renders NEXT TO the chart. I can't get the image to display WITHIN the chart area.

I am about to put this into production, so it runs automatically each evening. but just realized that it won't work unless it signs onto the source file's Windows 2000 server. It works for me when I'm testing it because I am always logged on the the Windows 2000 server.
I have been trying to figure out which DTS task I need to use to establish a connection by embedding my UserName and Password. Any tips woud be apprecitaed.

Learning as I go....
I'm having a problem with saving a password in a SSIS package that is accessing an Oracle database as an external data source. I experienced the problem that many people have had with the SSIS package not saving the Oracle password as expected. I successfully saved the Oracle datasource password (Password #1) using the "Encrypt sensitive with password" security setting and then setting a separate/new password (Password #2) for the SSIS package. I've imported this package into my Integration Services installation, and I can get it to run successfully by manually entering Password #2 when I open the package.
Now I want to pull the SSIS package into a SQL Job Agent, along with some other steps, to run on an automatic schedule. My question -- how/where do I embed Password #2 (the one for the SSIS package) in the settings for the SQL Job Agent step that I use to run the SSIS package? The SQL Job Agent step settings box prompts me for Password #2 before it will let me edit settings for the package, but it doesn't save that password. So when I actually run the whole job, the SSIS package always fails.
Hello,
I am kind of new with .Net development and really new with using SqlExpress. Here is my question, I hope it is easy:
I have a shareware program that I have been selling since 2000 and it was written in VB6 using a third party database program. What I would like to do is rewrite this application using C# and SqlServer Express. The program as it stands right now is about 5mb to download and install.
My concerns:
1) How do I embed and quietly install sqlserver express to the end user's computer without them having any intervention?
2) By using sqlserver express as my database how much extra overhead is going to be included in the install package? I want to keep the install package as small as possible and the user experience of installing the program as painless as possible.
Thanks in advance,

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a SQL 7.0 backend for a new DB of mine. This is the first time I
have developed a SQL backend from scratch, so the problem may be my design.
The problem may lie with my Access frontend (I have tried both 97 and 2k),
but I am inclined to think not considering the behavior.
On only one table (the master table no less), I cannot add records during
business hours. I can add records to other tables and edit records on this
table though. This troublesome table has a field indexed as unique that is
not the PK (don't know if that has any bearing, but it is the only table in
this DB that has that property).
The adding records problem appears to be network traffic related because
sometimes records can be added at lunchtime and definitely after hours. I currently only have 3 connected users. I had these problems with only one connected user, so the DB itself is not being strained by traffic. I often have more traffic on the DB after hours to avoid the problems. I have worked on the connection and network traffic angle for awhile, when I stumbled upon the bizarre part. If I add a record via a stored procedure and run this SP on the SQL query analyzer on the server (no network is involved) it is still slow to add the record (30 minutes or more). Needless to say this would equate to an failure on the front end. The same query will run in 0-3 seconds after hours!
Does anyone have any clue how this could happen? I am stumped.
I do have a budget for a consultant if I need one, but I need to find
someone who has a chance to fix this problem. If you don't know the answer
but can refer someone in the DFW area, I am in your debt.

Using SSIS, every month/week I have to generate serveral excel files. I need to find a way to automatically format these excel files (Bold, Headings in Different color etc.). Is there a way to integrate MS Office excel task in SSIS?

Help! My network support staff just upgraded my MS Office products from Office 2003 to Office 2007, and now I no longer get the "F5 = Run" option in Microsoft Visual Studio to run any of my SSIS packages that ran just fine yesterday, before the upgrade.
The "Debug" option does not occur in the menu choices across the top of the screen. (They are File, Edit, View, Project, Build, Data, Format, SSIS, Tools, Test, Window, Community, and Help -- no Debug.)
I store my packages in the File System. I can run many of them just fine, even today, with the Execute Package Utility. My problem occurs when I try to run them in Visual Studio.
Even if I make a simple, new package that moves a table from Access 2003 to SQL Server 2005, I see no Debug menu selection option when I am finished with the new package.
I figure it must be something simple -- I just don't know where to find it in the Visual Studio menu.
Most of the packages I am trying to run do not access Office files: they access dBase 5 files (database); they run processes on SQL Server 2005 servers. I realize that I may have to make some adjustments to connections to Access databases, should such databases be upgraded to Office 2007.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
Do anybody know if it's possible to have an SQL 2005 server deal with and out of office reply from an email its send via the new Database Mail?
My application sends mail to users, giving them task instructions via Database Mail, however if they have thier out of office set true, I just get a reply msg in the profiles inbox. I would like the SQL server to know that they are out of office.
I can recogise the replys by the subject and I have control over the format of the replies, so its just case of getting the SQL server to read msg in the inbox.
Thanks

Hi,
A while ago we changed from Sybase to MS Sql Server 2000. Thereby we also introduced Windows Authentication instead of SQL Logins. When end-users wanted to read directly (tools like Enterprise Manager/Query Analyzer/ isql and Office products (like Access and Excel via MS Query)) from the Sybase database we managed that with a SQL login with read-only rights. With Windows Authentication in MS Sql Server 2000 the end-user can enter the database with update rights. Is there a way to manage tools like EM/QA/isql/Office products etcetera so that the end-user can approach the database only with a SQL Login instead of Windows authentication ? Although we are building tooling to kill every user who approaches the database with the tooling mentioned, we think this is not a proper way to manage database access.
We hope someone has encountered the same problem and knows how to handle this and can help us.
Greetings,
Ferrie
Hi guys,
I'm trying to write an SSIS script that will create an excel file and append data to it.
I downloaded the Office 2007 PIAs (Primary Interop Assemblies) and installed them on my desktop PC where i'm developing from.
However, and even though the assemblies are in the GAC, they don't appear when you look in "Add Reference" for your script task.
If i create a standard .NET web or windows app and try to "Add Reference" I can find them there.
Am I missing anything obvious?
Thanks for your help in advance

I'm very disappointed that OWC has been "deprecated" ie. ripped out - see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143509.aspx . This is a major step backwards as we have got our users used to pivottables - they allow them to restructure and group summary data the way they want to save us admins from providing every possible grouping combination. Aaarrrgghhhh!
I tried the code from the above but even after restarting the SSRS and IIS no joy. The Apress Pro SSRS 2005 book also complains about the deprecation, and offers an augmented code for the rsreportserver.config file but it still doesn't work:
Code Block
<Extension Name="HTMLOWC" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.HtmlRenderer.HtmlOWCRenderingExtension,Microsoft.ReportingServices.HtmlRendering" Visible="true">
<Configuration>
<OWCConfiguration>
<OWCDownloadLocation language="en">http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2002/owc10.aspx
</OWCDownloadLocation>
</OWCConfiguration>
</Configuration>
</Extension>
I appreciate another thread mentions poss necessity of previous DLL however we don't have old installations and old DLLs surely shouldn't be nec. Any further help greatly appreciated.
Has anyone made the OWC work under SQL 2005? Why are MS making this awkward?
Does SQL Server Express work *easily* with Office 2003? I'm especially interested in using Access 2003 & Excel 2003 with SQL Server Express.
I did a search here, but found nothing.
I see Oracle is now giving away their "Express" Oracle 10g; I'm weighing options...
Help!
I've been using MS Office Accounting 2007 (free version) and today the application says that the database cannot be connected to. Basically, the SQL service will not start or run. Could it be due to Symatec's firewall? Please help.

What is the best way to insert records into an SQL Server 2005 database that's being hosted with my website. The data will originate from customer sites as transactions. Do I connect to the hosted database using TCP/IP or do I create web pages that accept the data variables? This is all new to me!
I need this to happen unattended and 24/7/365

I have been asked to look into using Filestream for centralising MS Office documents (mostly excel).I am worried about the "user interface" aspect.I read that there are "this and that" APIs to read/write data to the filestream but surely one would need to write a specific interface to Word/Excel... which feels like far too hard.I am a great admirer of SQL Server but is it the right tool for document management?
We use SQL Server 2012 and have offices round the world with various internet connection quality.Our main aim is to stop the current "spreadsheet nightmare" so common with Excel.
Hi,
Is it possible to make Pivottables in Office 2000(Frontpage or Excel) and get data from cubes in Analyses Services SQL server 2005? If it works, are there any problems or do I have full functionality?
